Eric's POV

I quietly slip out of the room to go fetch the med box, so that I can fix her hands, which she's badly damaged from all that punching. I don't what came over me when I hugged her, but I suppose it's because I saw that she was hurting, and she actually had an excuse it wasn't just someone upset from being dumped or an initiate missing their mummies, she was properly hurting and I know she had been for the most of her life. Of course, I know who she was and who Marcus was, I also know that Four was her brother and even though I despise him I can't imagine how hard it would have been for him to leave his sister with that monster for four years. I make my way into the initiate's dorm and find that all of them are asleep which doesn't surprise me it's well past ten, their supposed 'bedtime'.

Grabbing the box that is hanging on the wall by the door, I make my way back to the training room. Despite only being gone a few minutes, I return to find Parker fast asleep on the bench where I left her. Once I'm by the bench I can't help but feel sorry for her, she looks so peaceful, it is the polar opposite to what she was like when I found her in here. Deciding it probably best to clean the cuts on her hands as quickly as possible, I take one her hands and wipe carefully at the cuts not wanting do wake her, once the first hand is all bandaged up I move onto the second one, after I'm finished I lift her up and carry her out of the room and towards the initiate dorm, luckily her bed is in the far corner close to the door so I don't have to worry about trying not to wake the other initiates. As I place her down on the bed I notice how light she is and my stomach twists at the thought of Marcus starving her, I can't even begin to fathom how a father could do that to his children, his own flesh and blood. I decide not to think about it anymore, and make my way up to my apartment, I can only hope she doesn't mention anything tomorrow, I really don't have the patience to deal with Four.

Sorry, the chapter is so short but, I will update again today with a longer chapter. What did you think of the POV, I don't plan to do many in his POV as I find it difficult writing from the male perspective but if the want for it is big enough I might do more chapters this way.
